There is a glitch at the redwood on the center, where plesiosaurs will spawn really near the coast and whole groups of 2 or 3 are glitched in the water, meaning you can knock out multiple plesiosaurs at the time.

It's like a fish but bigger

The trick is to argo one, have him chase you into an underwater cave where he will not be able to fit through the door but his long neck and head does. when you do this he will not de-agro, you can then get a clear shot from the cave with a bow and tranq arrows

You're gonna need about three fiddy, then this beast will let you go.

This has to be the most terrifying creature on ark. I've tamed one and it still makes me piss my pants when i see it.

Put a grill on platform. Farm other plesiosaur for prime meat. Cook underwater

These are not "pleasuresaurs" as I soon found out =/

After tamed, you can grapple onto them while a tribmate drives it and easily tame more large water mounts. If you are about to touch a structure or terrain, crouch to take off the hook or you will die instantly and your body will fly across the map

The trick to ko these guys is to wait for them to agro you, once they're close enough, swim up and backwards until you've reached their swim limit and shoot them as many times as possible. When they lose interest, just do the same trick and eventually you'll knock it out

There is an invisible barrier at a certain depth that the plesis will not cross, you can drag them up to this and shoot them till they deagro, when they do reagro and repeat until their knocked out. Also, you can drag them to the entrance of an underwater cave, and shoot the plesi, as long as you dont venture too far into the cave, it will not deagro.

If you are being chased by a plesiosaur,then swim up to the surface.like the mosasaur,the plesiosaur does not swim over a certain depth limit and is never seen at the surface(bit weird since they need to breathe,right?)

If trained well, they can be really good for looting deep sea crates, as well as visiting underwater caves

Always 2 near the east bubble under north tropical (the center)

Any mobile players out there, there aren't any underwater caves so these guys are just commonly in the deep.

If you're taming a level 97 with raw prime, you're gonna need about tree fiddy narcotics.

If you have flippers on float up if they try to bite you they'll miss 80% of the time because they're stupid

Since a certain update, you can no longer get the plesiosaur to chase you up until it can't reach. When it can't chase you anymore, it will run away every time. Bring a dunk and let it munch on it against a wall. Especially on Ragnarok, the ocean is very open on there.

Mostly found near underwater caves in groups of 2 or 3

If you have the tek under water stuff will not flood underwater so you can have ultimate water patrol unit.

Beefy, powerful, fast, good lifter, supports platforms, can be tamed on foot with much less efort and risk than Mosas (still not easy). For sure this thing is the most versatile mount after Mosas, Quetzals, Wyverns and Mantis (oh boi, you NEED a Mantis).
